Whilst watching the Shrek franchise, you may have wondered: How does Puss, the swashbuckling cat voiced by Antonio Banderas , justify donning footwear but not clothes? A new video for his upcoming spin-off movie, Puss in Boots , has your answer. This movie star endorses a freer, more versatile lifestyle choice: No-pants pants!

First 50/50 released a theatrical trailer some 30 seconds shorter than its teaser trailer, and now Footloose has done the same thing. Is this the beginnings of a trend? Have the definitions of “trailer” and “teaser” been reversed at some point in the last 48 hours? Will there be a memo sent out explaining the cause? Silly questions, sure, but also more interesting than what’s presented in the somewhat boring new trailer for Footloose . Bring back the “teaser”!

Oh, lovely: After staging his body-stitching horror pic The Human Centipede (First Sequence) in Germany and getting banned in the U.K. for upping the twisted thrills (and the number of victims) in the Britain-set Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) , director Tom Six plans to finish his trilogy in the good old U.S.A. “We’re going to shoot the third film entirely in America and it’s going to be my favorite,” he said during the Empire Presents… Big Screen event in London, where he promised that the threequel would “make the last one look like a Disney film.” Hold onto your asses, America.

There were eliminations on America’s Got Talent last night, but no surprises. Find out below who went home and who will perform again… Eliminations Part 1 – Powerhouse and Gymkana – If I wanted to watch a good Glee -style singing group… I’d watch Glee . Powerhouse wasn’t the best group and there were too many voices muffling the routine. Gymkana, on the other hand, had a strong routine and advanced through. Musical Guest – Tay Zonday, “Chocolate Rain,” pictured – I loved that the song continued to sound so amateur even though he was performing in front of America. I also loved his chair. Musical Guest – Keenan Cahill – The routine was silly but fun to watch. Nick Cannon faux-sing/rapping was a nice change. Keenan’s jacket looked horrible. Musical Performance – OK Go ft. Pilobolus, “All Is Not Lost”- The routine was really interesting and had wonderful shapes created with bodies. There is something unflattering about seeing squashed butts and the bottoms of feet on a piece of Plexiglas. Eliminations Part 2 – Matt Wilhelm, TNC Elite, Aeon – Matt continued to prove that black lights, shadows, or neon are the way to succeed in America’s Got Talent. It was foreboding that TNC looked depressed as they walked to the stage; they knew that it was Matt’s round to lose. Aeon didn’t have the right scenery to make a beautiful routine; they should have gone with more walls and places to jump off of. Matt was easily through. Musical Performance – Rebecca Black , “My Moment/Friday” – Rebecca still isn’t a good singer, but she’s gotten better. Maybe it was the arrangement or the fact that her performance lasted like 15 seconds, but it wasn’t bad. Eliminations Part 3 – Kalani Basketball Freestyle, Brett Daniels, Kevin Colis, Breena Bell – When balls go down, America doesn’t normally give second chances so Kalani was out of luck. The magic trick from Brett was too slow for America. The judges did a great job shooting down Breena without killing her dreams. While I hated Kevin’s song choice, of the four that he was standing against, he did the best. I still argue that his voice isn’t miraculous. Let’s hope he chooses a better song next time. Musical Performance – Up & Over It, “Hands” – I watched Britain’s Got Talent and I loved Up & Over It this year. I was happy they were given more than 15 seconds than the other YouTube acts. They managed to segue their hand dancing to their Irish dancing better than Britain’s Got Talent. If they did this routine instead of “9 to 5,” they would have advanced further. Final Elimination – West Springfield Dance Team, Gabe Rocks, Beth Ann Robinson – West Springfield Dance Team needs a better name, if they are always dark; they need a name to match. We need a good animal act and Gabe Rocks was strong, but could have been better. Watching both So You Think You Can Dance and this show, Beth Ann Robinson shows future growth potential but I’m not sure if she’s ready. The act that was eliminated was Gabe Rocks. When the groups begged for the judge’s vote, Beth Ann came off sounding pageant-y, but more confident than the Dance Team’s representative. The judging started with Piers and he continued to demean Gabe Rocks, voting for Beth. Sharon pointed out that Beth was a perfectionist, but she voted for West Springfield. Howie had the last vote and went for Beth Ann Robinson. It didn’t matter, though, since Sharon put West Spring in the wild card.

Panty flashes are so fucking boring….I am tired of them….I am looking for something way more hardcore…I am also tired of these no name bitches who I have no fucking idea who they but who managed to get on TV and use that low level fame to create a brand of products that they just sold to another company for over 120 million dollars….proving that TV is still the best marketing tool and that America loves everything on TV, reminding me that I should quit the internet, get on a reality show, and launch my line of whore pussy juice energy drink that gives you an adrenaline rush for fear you’re gonna get a disease from it, but luckily when the drug that laces the shit get into your blood stream it’s all fuckin’ good…If you know what I mean… To See The Rest of the Pics of her Shitty Panty Flash…using her underwear to try to keep in the public eye to get make more stupid money….

I’ve seen this bitch naked…not in my bed, pool, or even on stage when she was coming up as the star…but I’ve see her naked naked in Shameless and I prefer it to this…. See this white dress may not be period friendly…which is convenient cuz Emmy Rossum isn’t very friendly on TWITTER you see cuz she blocked me…. But this white dress could have been pervert friendly….cuz white clothing tends to be pretty fucking see through especially with a thick black bush under the shit…and seeing her showing off her body that we’ve all seen naked thanks to my naked in entertainment pervert journalism …you know making us think she was actually kind of cool and cared about her fans and our masturbation needs…but instead she just sucks…and not in a good way…but I’m posting the pics anyway…

Here’s Bollywood pussy that belongs to Dev Patel cuz he gets her, you know with the whole being the only two Indian (dot not feather) actors who have made it in America, even though she’s far better looking than him, you know good enough to even land a famous white actor, but famous white actors can’t give her uterus Indian (dot not feather) babies…and apparently that’s something important to ethnic people….at least that’s what I’ve concluded on the stinky immigrant bus I sometimes take… She’s leaving pilates or yoga cuz she’s cliche like that….you know being into Yoga and from India is almost like being American and owning a gun…only a lot more peaceful, thanks Ghandi, and she’s covering her stomach, which means pregnancy…cuz that’s how these secret arranged marriages work…trade goat for daughter, daughter make baby, move to america, open convenience store or butter chicken and nan bread store…only this is hollywood…. I have no idea why I did that post….

Before Captain America: First Avenger was released in July, much was made about how the title — and title character in his red, white and blue — would play in foreign markets. In fact, three countries (Russia, Ukraine and South Korea) even decided to release the film with the Marvel-approved shortened title The First Avenger . Following a successful showing stateside , good ol’ Cap made his worldwide debut in many big foreign markets over the weekend; as the numbers trickle in, it looks he’s got some pretty enthusiastic allies.

Past interviews have highlighted the band’s love of drinking. By Gil Kaufman Kings of Leon Photo: Getty In an era where most rock bands are about as edgy as the latest Ark Music Factory teen-sensation-in-a-box, Tennessee hell-raisers Kings of Leon have often stood out as a throwback to a messier era. The band of brothers (and cousin) raised by a Pentecostal preacher rose from humble beginnings to their current status as one of the biggest rock bands on the planet thanks to dark, moody songs, good genes (and jeans) and a well-established reputation as boozing, brawling ladies’ men who’ve been only somewhat tamed by rock stardom. In recent times, it seemed as if those hellion days were behind them, as one by one the Followill boys have gotten engaged, married or into serious relationships and talked about dialing back the partying. Questions were raised, though, over the weekend when the Kings announced they were canceling the remainder of their U.S. tour due to singer Caleb Followill’s “vocal issues and exhaustion.” The news came after a disastrous show in Dallas during which Followill repeatedly complained about the heat and abruptly left the stage, at one point telling the crowd, “I’m gonna go backstage and I’m gonna vomit. I’m gonna drink a beer and I’m gonna come back out and play three more songs.” Though Caleb never returned to the stage, frustrated bassist Jared Followill later tweeted, “There are internal sicknesses & problems that have needed to be addressed. I can’t lie, there are problems in our band bigger than not drinking enough Gatorade.” The missive clearly made it seem as if some deeper issues than the heat were afoot. Looking back at interviews the band has conducted over the past few years, it’s clear that alcohol has long been a part of the fuel that helped the band navigate their rise to stardom — for good or ill. Whether it’s Jared jokingly telling MTV News that he was impressively good at “Rock Band” while drunk or Caleb suggesting that the band’s most recent CD, Come Around Sundown, “sounds better with a cocktail,” to which Jared replied, “Everything [is better with a cocktail],” the boys have not shied away from discussing their tippling. An April 2009 cover story in Rolling Stone magazine called “The God-Fearing, Booze-Swilling Rise of America’s Hottest Band,” in fact, opens with Caleb and brother drummer Nathan arriving home late one night in 2007 after a heavy night of drinking and getting into such a vicious fight that Caleb dislocated his shoulder and Nathan shattered a $7,000 mirror and then proceeded to repeatedly stab his brother’s mattress with a kitchen knife. The rest of the story has a number of other boozy moments, from Caleb’s drunk New York apartment shopping to a description of the light in the interior of their 75-acre Tennessee property “reflecting off the endless bottles of hard alcohol and wine that cover nearly every inch of counter space.” It notes that after Caleb met his wife, model Lily Aldridge , he gave up drinking whiskey and now sticks to “wine, beer and the occasional shot of tequila.” Though their well-documented love of spirits appears to be at least somewhat to blame for recent troubles, the RS story also mentioned that, like his preacher father, Caleb “suffers from nerves, and he regularly vomits during performances.” Caleb has not made any public statement about what ails him, but on Tuesday, he told TMZ he was focused on healing. “I’m just trying to get better,” he said. Asked if the band will still hit the road as planned in September for a string of Canadian shows, he replied, “I don’t know … we’ll see how it goes.” Related Artists Kings Of Leon
